Sweets for the Soul's Brownie Collections

Sweets for the Soul's founder, Lilly La Bonge, makes her brownies exclusively with Valrhona chocolate, farmer's market eggs, organic flour, organic spices, and the "purest of other ingredients," which she then uses to make espresso, caramel, and even vegan sweets. If you don't feel like a whole brownie, you can order one of her "brownie shots," which we can only assume is not as caffeinated as an espresso shot, but probably more exciting! Consider a collection of "Cocoa Bites" or the 24-piece Brownie Points box, for a more extravagant (and indulgent) gift. (sweetsforthesoul.com, $11.40 for a gift box of 4 brownie shots, or $34.20 for a dozen)
